We calculate the survival probability of an immobile target surrounded by a sea of uncorrelated diffusive or subdiffusive evanescent traps, i.e., traps that disappear in the course of their motion. Our calculation is based on a fractional…

Particles driven through a periodic potential by an external constant force are known to exhibit a pronounced peak of the diffusion around a critical force that defines the transition between locked and running states. It has recently been…

Quantum mechanical control of the position of a particle by using a trapping potential well is an important problem for the manipulation of a quantum particle. We study the probability of successful conveyance of a particle trapping in a…
This paper focuses on the escape problem of a harmonically-forced classical particle from a purely-quartic truncated potential well. The latter corresponds to various engineering systems that involve purely cubic restoring force and absence…
Diffusion-coagulation can be simply described by a dynamic where particles perform a random walk on a lattice and coalesce with probability unity when meeting on the same site. Such processes display non-equilibrium properties with strong…
